According to Jeff Passan, a $331 million contract is in the works with the Boston Red Sox.
The BoSox and Devers agreed to a one-year, $17.5 million deal on Tuesday. According to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, he will get a $20 million signing bonus and an 11 year pact.
One of the best power-hitting third basemen in Major League Baseball has won his first Silver Slugger award, as evidenced by the fact that he has spent his entire six-year career with the Redy's.
The chief baseball officer of the RedSox wanted to keep the player in Boston. He talked about it during an interview with the sports network.
We'll probably try to get this done. Hopefully, we can complete this. People can put something out of reach if they don't know what they're doing. If he hits 63 homers, I hope he bets on himself.
Signing Devers to an extension will prevent them from losing another player. The team traded star right fielder Mookie Betts to the Los Angeles Dodgers ahead of the 2020 season.
